Creativity and imaginative use of the popular watercolour medium suffuses every part of Jane Betteridge's work. In this, her first book, she shares her painting techniques and methods with you. Learn to use watercolour paints in unusual and surprising ways to create works bursting with vibrancy and beauty.

Jane Betteridge is an artist and tutor whose interest in painting stems from childhood. Building on this love of painting at local watercolour classes, she gained A-level and City and Guilds certificates in art before taking up teaching. Jane was delighted to be invited to be an Artist in Residence at the BBC's Gardener's World live, an experience that encouraged her to write her own book. Known for her experimental, innovative approach to watercolours, Jane's adventurous, fun style allows you to take advantage of the medium to produce free, lively works of art.
